"I Killed The Teen-Dream"

Jawbreaker is a 1999 dark-comedy directed by Darren Stein. It was released February 19, 1999. The film stars Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, and Judy Greer as girls in a clique that is at the top of the feeding order in their local high school. Dark, edgy, yet still teenage, the movie obviously pays homage to the 1989 dark comedy "Heathers". It has also been compared to other teenage movies such as "Clueless" and "Carrie".The movie opens with a semi-playful kidnapping that goes terribly wrong when the huge jawbreaker that McGowan's character sticks in the victim's mouth gets hung up in her throat after she's been tossed into the trunk of a car. It was all supposed to be a prank, but now one of the hubba-hubbas is dead, and, because this is a modern satire, the other hubba-hubbas have to start acting cold-hearted about it.Rose was oh so bad in this movie. First she kills one of her friends, well she supervised. Then just as she's working on the story, and figuring out what the cops should here, Fern Mayo, an outsider, poses as a threat to her lil secret, she reinvents her as "Violette" just to keep her in order. But like all creations she develops a mind of her own! Marilyn Manson was given his cameo part because he was engaged to Rose McGowan at the time the movie was made. It was fun to watch him on the big screen! He played a small part. Cortney pics him up at a bar to take him back to her dead friends bed to fuck, so that it looks like Liz had been raped in bed, where she propped the body! If you haven't seen this movie uer really missing out.
